Silly Penny. The heavy missile skill training to level V has completed, but apparently I don't have the specialisation book to hand. I was only out in empire space buying skill books yesterday! I thought I already had the book, though, having stocked up a while back on missile specialisations ...

Scanning at home finds two new anomalies have spawned. The sheer number of signatures accumulating locally is almost as if we're not house-proud. And, just to prove it, I resolve the nicely conspicuous static wormhole and ignore everything here to explore our neighbouring class 3 w-space system. Our system may ...

I have a wormhole to find. I pop and pod a Catalyst destroyer salvaging an anomaly before seeing a newly arrived Drake warp out of one of the local towers, and I have no idea where he went. I make the one wormhole-jump home to swap in to my Buzzard ...

I have a new scanning routine. I know that I really need to switch to combat scanning probes when hunting, negating the need to warp to a mining site, and potentially getting spotted should I get decloaked on a rock or cloud, but I much prefer the simplicity of core ...

I wonder if we've had visitors. As the home system is not stabilising I can't be the first pilot to be here today. But maybe glorious leader Fin was busy earlier harvesting gas. There is no sign of anyone currently in the system, so I launch probes and scan, looking ...

'Hey, just in time'. Glorious leader Fin is happy to see me, as always, somehow tolerant to my little foibles and sociopathic tendencies. I ask if we're ready to shoot someone, but apparently not. Fin has, however, isolated the home system's static wormhole from the noise of the forty-one sites ...

Fully fed, I get back in my ship to glorious leader Fin reporting a sighting of a Probe name 'Lost in EVE' on her directional scanner in the C3. Maybe this means a K162 wormhole has opened in to the system, offering more opportunity for exploration and perhaps combat. I ...

A lazy afternoon seems like a good time to complete a full re-scan of the home w-space system. I could go hunting through our static wormhole but it is getting more difficult to isolate the new wormhole signature from the few dozen bookmarks I have, and it will be good ...

A Cyclone is spotted in our neighbouring class 3 w-space system. Glorious leader Fin spies it idling in the local tower, and I follow in to take a look for myself. At first, it looks like the Cyclone is active, but Fin's right. It is merely circling the tower slowly, ...

I can't be lucky two days in a row, but let's see what's in our w-space constellation today anyway. Or I would, if our home system weren't getting swamped with Sleepers. This is supposed to be space, vast and empty, but we have so many ladar sites we almost have ...
